So my experience of foreign culture boils down to three basic stages: anger, acceptance and appreciation. When I began my life in China I was often filled with frustration and 1 over the way things were. Things were seen as clearly “ 2 ” and I rejected the view of there being other ways of doing things. Afterwards I came to 3 different ways of doing things but still saw my own ways as superior.

Finally, however , I came to understand and appreciate the new 7 and ways of doing things, sometimes using them as effectively as the 8 . For example, fish is never 9 with the head in my country, thus my feelings went from “Ugh! I can’t eat this! The fish is 10 at me saying, `Youre a 11 man. Take this off the table,” to “I’ll let my friends enjoy, but Ill just stick with the other dishes,” and to Would anyone mind if I eat the eyeball? It is not the same with every westerner, and some take 12 than others to go through the three stages. It all depends on how 13 you are and how tightly you 14 to your own culture.
